Florence Pugh, Los Angeles
“For the first few days I felt low. Then my dad reminded me that I needed to dance and I needed to cook and I needed to do all of the things that make me happy,” says the
actor. “I instantly started shimmying and boogeying in the morning and I felt so much happier and just...bubbly all day. I’ve also turned toward chopping and cooking and flavors. I have this vegetable patch that I put in in autumn of last year, so that’s where I’m getting all my cabbages, and my leeks—and my elephant garlics! I’m totally finding a sense of calm in all the greenery. Meditation doesn’t really work on me. I get very frustrated that my brain thinks about too many things. So I tend to turn to cooking and stirring. Last night I made a little kind of one-pot dish just to use all things in the fridge, and it completely calmed me down.”
